Referee Craig Pawson decided not to punish Sissoko for the challenge, but he could still be banned retrospectively. However, speaking after the game, Arter explained that there was no intent from Sissoko and he would prefer if no action was taken against him.
"He said to me afterwards that he did catch me but that it was by accident." "He doesn't seem to be that sort of player, so I'm sure it was by accident and hopefully we can move on from it."We'll see if the Premier League also conclude that Sissoko didn't mean to catch the Bournemouth man. If they do decide to hand the Frenchman a retrospective ban then he could miss important Premier League games against Leicester City and Arsenal.
